It began, like so many great ideas do, with a few friends laughing over beers.

"The three of us were just hanging out," Chris Baker, a 29-year-old from New York City, told The Huffington Post. "Somehow the topic got to how intolerable Facebook has grown because of the baby pictures" on everyone's profiles.

Fed up with the infant picture overload, Baker and his two friends Peter Marquis and Yvonne Cheng, who are all in their late 20s, decided to hire a programmer to de-baby their Facebook space.

"For our age group, it's a problem that's a year or two old, and it's just getting worse and worse," Baker told HuffPost. "We just realized, if it was a problem for us three, it was probably a problem for 3,000."

The extension, which is designed for Chrome, operates on a simple concept: replace any and all baby pictures on Facebook with "awesome stuff." After installing the program, users simply need to refresh their Facebook feed, and -- voila! -- no more babies.
